Brother Field... those are a lot of mess to digest. I thought they LOVED Brothers Rock and Dave. I guess you can't avoid BWB (breathing while Black). I hope the people of these states realize that politicians don't have our interests as first.

I always thought that people with no skin in the game remain on the sidelines. Especially health care. That is a divider in itself.

Barack Obama plans to bypass the congress to impose carbon restrictions that will cost Americans an estimated 3.2 trillion dollars in order to prevent an EPA-estimated 0.18 degrees Celsius rise in global temperatures by the year 2100.

Here's another April Fools' story that is, unfortunately, not a prank. Now wingnuts in other countries are getting in on the foaming-at-the-mouth crazy talk about Obama.

A candidate for the UK parliament from UKIP (basically the British equivalent of our glue-sniffing hillbilly Tea Party) was informed of Obama's negotiations with the Iranian government over nuclear technology, and he went stark raving bonkers.

"'The Israeli government should kidnap Barack Obama and put him on trial like a Nazi war criminal,' a Ukip election candidate has argued.

Jeremy Zeid, the party’s candidate for Hendon, said Israel should 'do an Eichmann' on the US president.

Adolf Eichmann one of the architects of the Holocaust, was kidnapped by the Israeli secret service in 1960. He was put on trial, found guilty of crimes against humanity, and hanged.

'Once Obama is out of office, the Israelis should move to extradite the bastard or "do an Eichmann" on him, and lock him up for leaking state secrets. After all what’s sauce for the Pollard goose is sauce for the Obama gander, don’t you think?' Mr Zeid said.

'Just kidnap the bugger, like they did to Eichman, who suddenly found that he'd woken up in Israel. The problem is that Israeli jails are far more humane and adherent to human rights than American ones.'”

So there you are:

Barack Obama.

And the guy who arranged the murder of millions of Jews and other European minorities.

"Barack Obama plans to bypass the congress to impose carbon restrictions that will cost Americans an estimated 3.2 trillion dollars in order to prevent an EPA-estimated 0.18 degrees Celsius rise in global temperatures by the year 2100.

Nope, It's true."

No, it isn't.

**"Jeremy Zeid, the party’s candidate for Hendon, said Israel should 'do an Eichmann' on the US president."

That should read former UKIP candidate - they sacked him. UKIP are insane, but they are not Tea Party insane.

Recently, the most important thing in the world, besides strategically crucial Yemen and whether or not somebody who is 1/4th Jewish is allowed to tweet Jewish jokes, is whether wedding photographers and cake bakers in Indiana can be permitted to decline to work gay marriages for religious reasons. Speaking for his fellow members of the marginalized and oppressed everywhere, Apple CEO Tim Cook demanded that the full weight of the state be brought down upon any self-employed individuals in flyover states who pick up some extra money working weekends in June if they dare admit they are uncomfortable servicing gay weddings. Walmart has now also joined the coalition of the powerless to whip those hater small business people into line with the New Order. How dare anyone not maximize profits?

And in actual reality, meaning the alternate reality from the one in which you live, here's a rundown of some recent headlines that gripped the world, or at least the cities in which they occurred. Surprisingly, your site ignored them:

- A black woman cuts a baby from the womb of a white woman. The baby dies, the mother almost dies. The black woman is not charged with murder, obviously: http://www.cnn.com/2015/03/26/us/colorado-pregnant-woman-attack#BlackPrivilege

- A black man murders a white Domino's delivery driver in New Orleans: http://www.nola.com/crime/index.ssf/2015/04/dominos_delivery_driver_murder.html A black guy killed a white Domino's driver in the same black neighborhood last September as well, when blacks' anger was falsely inflamed by the mainstream media in the wake of #Ferguson.

- Hero Boston cop (and Iraq vet) John Moynihan, who helped capture Boston marathon bomber in 2013, is shot point-blank in the face by a black thug (with a history of shooting at police) during a traffic stop: http://www.cnn.com/2015/03/28/us/boston-officer-shot No social media outcry.

- In 2013, a black 15 year old thug gets a heart transplant despite protestations. Two years later (March 31, 2014), he dies in a car crash after stealing a car and shooting an elderly lady: http://www.wsbtv.com/news/news/local/police-suspect-hits-pedestrian-while-running-offic/nkjbqhttp://www.theroot.com/articles/news/2015/04/ga_teen_anthony_stokes_who_received_heart_transplant_dies_while_fleeing.html - "For some, it still doesn’t change the fact that Anthony Stokes, like any American, deserved a heart transplant, regardless of his run-ins with the law."

_ http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3010272/EVERY-ethnic-group-Britain-wants-cut-immgration-half-want-big-drop-numbers-coming-country.html - "Some 60 per cent of Asian respondents wish to see immigration reduced, with 38 per cent wanting it down by a lot. The same is true of black respondents with 57 per cent thinking it should be curbed and 32 per cent wanting a large cut. For those of mixed origin, 60 per cent wanted a decrease with 30 per cent wanting a big fall." LOL. So people of color really just want to live around non-violent white people after all... Who woulda thought?

- Trevor Noah's litany of sexist, racist tweets are revealed. But he gets to keep his new job, whereas a white person would've been fired immediately. #BlackPrivilege

...But oh noes, Chris Rock and Dave Chappelle got their feelings hurt! Remember folks, black people's hurt feelings are more important than white people's constant loss of life at the hands of black criminals. And if you think I'm exagerrating:http://conservative-headlines.com/memorial-wall-black-on-white-murders-in-2014http://conservative-headlines.com/black-on-white-murders-in-2015

"Walmart has now also joined the coalition of the powerless to whip those hater small business people into line with the New Order. How dare anyone not maximize profits?"

The New World Order? You might want to take a break from the Alex Jones broadcasts. Listening to his conspiracy theories causes brain shrinkage.

And it's got zilch to do with profits and everything to with bigotry. Running a bigoted business is illegal, even if you wave around your big Bible and double-pinky swear that Jesus is totally on your side. You still gotta follow the rules.

Either be a grown-up and treat all your customers with respect, or don't have a business. End of story.

*The black woman who cut than woman's fetus out isn't being charged with murder because fetuses aren't legally people. It's got nothing to do with her race.

*So sorry that people aren't reacting to murder of a delivery driver and a cop by blaming all black people and demanding a race war commence. It must frustrate you greatly that everyone isn't as racist as you.

*The dude with the criminal record was able to get a transplant because we don't predicate medical care on the character of patients. Although if we did, you'd probably never be able to see a doctor again, on account of your being a horrible bigot whose demise would benefit our nation.

*The Daily Mail isn't a credible news source. Pretty much anything they print has about a 75% chance of being false.

*Trevor Noah's comments were yet another nothingburger bigotry story. If you're losing your marbles over the extremely inoffensive jokes he made, I think the problem is you. Honestly, we've reached the point of maximum hypersensitivity where practically any comment can trigger some stupid outrage storm on social media. People really need to learn to stop crying wolf and save their protests about hate speech for when it really matters.

Joliet Teens Charged With Child PornographyAll four students attend Joliet Central High School, and are between the ages of 14 and 16. A 15-year-old girl and three of her classmates recorded consensual sex acts one week ago, and posted the video on Twitter....The four teens were arrested Friday, and charged as juveniles with child pornography

SAP, I always knew after Roc's Everybody Hates Chris (EHS) TV showed aired, that Whuteemoo's would find a way to get back at him. He took shots at them on a pretty regular and hilarious basis on that show an in his stand up, LOL!!

The Field Negro wrote...Chris Rock was pulled over by the po po for DWB for the third time in less than two months.

Nope. It's true.

From your link...

No word yet on what exactly Rock was pulled over for on Monday night.

Of course.

Is this going to be another situation like when Taraji P. Henson called out the police for profiling her son and the cop video proved her a liar?

There must be a good reason he isn't releasing the rest of the videos.

On a side note, driving problems are nothing new...

Rock claims to have been arrested four times: once for vehicular assault on a youth who had robbed him, and three times for traffic violations, including driving without a license and driving too slow. http://www.thebiography.org/chris-rock-biography/

WTF does this have to do with zero tolerance?

Zero tolerance rules are about not bringing weapons to school, mostly. (Weapons apparently include things like scissors and nail clippers.) And also not having violence thoughts, etc. (Some kids have gotten kicked out of class for merely drawing a violent picture in art class.)

This is about a child porn law. I'd say child porn laws are a pretty sensible thing (unless you're a fan of child rape), but many of them are badly written laws and can allow a child to be charged with victimizing him/herself.

This is moronic and was never the intent of those laws, but that doesn't stop some of our dumber law enforcement officer from abusing them in just such a way. If I had to guess, this police officer is one of those Bible-thumping, sex-hating morality crusaders trying to save these kids from sin by destroying their lives -- you know, a conservative wingnut, one of your folks, Bill.

Yep, nothing saves a teenager from a life of "sluttiness" like being sent to prison and branded a sex offender.

Uh huh. Morally changes, and the laws change to reflect our morality. That's how human beings and democratic government work.

Also, your steps 6 and 7 are a victimization fantasy of yours and they will never happen, much less any step 8

The government will never force you to get gay-married.

And the government will never force you to like gay people (although people in general may eventually come around to the conclusion that you are a closed-minded jerk, one who is unable to change his views in response to reason and evidence, or to show basic empathy towards others).

What you are griping about is that you might be prevented from persecuting other people, which hardly makes you any kind of actual victim.

Sorry, but zero tolerance rules are not some kind of invention of liberals. They're a response to parents panicking over Columbine-style school shootings. Teachers actually hate them, and there is no meaningful support for them among liberals.

90% of teachers vote liberal democrat98% of teacher's union political donations go the democrat party100% of literature selected for use in public schools supports liberal themes100% of textbooks used in public schools are designed to indoctrinate students by promoting liberal beliefs while disparaging conservatism.

Yet this dumbass blames the dysfunction of American schools on conservatives.

"90% of teachers vote liberal democrat98% of teacher's union political donations go the democrat party100% of literature selected for use in public schools supports liberal themes100% of textbooks used in public schools are designed to indoctrinate students by promoting liberal beliefs while disparaging conservatism."

Bwahaha.

99% of right-wing commenters pull statistics out of their asses.

What happens when a person like you encounters a fact? Are you instantly vaporized, like when matter and anti-matter come in contact?

I think people should have -- and by God, do have -- the right to be fairly different from one another.

That's fucking America.

Did you not know that? That that's what America is?

That America is the right to be different from other people?

I don't see why a store run by a pious conservative Muslim can't demand that women be covered, if that's his bag, nor why a store run by a pious conservative Catholic can't also insist that women cover their shoulders, if that's his sense of what his business should be, of what should happen on property he owns.

Will there be hurt feelings when some are turned away?

Sure.

And who cares?

What the fuck are we, babies? Is this kindergarten, where everyone must be made to feel welcome, always?

Why the fuck would you think I would even care about this shit? Is it because you care about it so much, that you are so concerned about maintaining a Standard Generic Vanilla Corporate-Friendly Non-Culture Culture everywhere, that the idea of a Muslim religious bookstore which insists on a strict dress code for women is mentally deranging?

To be honest with you, I already assume there already are Islamic bookstops which will demand that women leave unless properly veiled.

And yet I'm not pissing myself about this.

Why would I want to go to that shop in the first place?

A culture without any rough parts, without any Proud Nails that won't be pounded down, without any Strangeness that people just insist upon because it's Their Culture, That's Why, is not a culture at all.

It's a fucking shopping mall. It's a fucking Airport Neutral Palate Color Scheme. It's the gray paste they feed to people in comas.

The hysterical witch hunt that has been kicked off by the Indiana Religious Freedom Act is just another cultural attack by the Left based on lies. No one has asked for the right to refuse service to gays, merely not to be compelled to produce a product that conflicts with their religious beliefs.

This is similar to the Obama 2012 War on Women campaign theme, where the move against using the power of the state to compel a religious organization to pay for a particular type of birth control (the morning after pill) was conflated with an effort to ban all birth control, which of course it was not.

Josh, Jim Antle, Ace Freely and myself have formed an interracial, non-partisan coalition of freedom and liberated thought, that even FN will co-sign.

While, Josh and Ace may give it to you straight-no-chaser, Jim, FN and myself are working hard to end the whining and help the alleged disenfranchised commentators dry their weepy eyes so they can see the blessing it is to live in the US and voice your grievance, then move on to the solution.

Well anon 1405 conservatives have been trying to destroy the public school system and unions for years so there is that. There is also a movement in some parts of the country to inject religion into the public school system and that is all the work of conservatives. So conservatives to have to take some measure of responsibility for the state of our public schools.

C'mon pizza boy, you're oversimplifying here. Conservatives tend to do that a lot. The point is there was/is no need for a religious freedom bill in Indiana or anywhere else. This was a bone thrown to the base because they lost on gay marriage in Indiana. For proof look at Mike Pence's record on gay matters. He is anti-gay and one has to be blind to think there was no malice involved in this bill. If there was no malice why does he want to change the bill? Why does the legislature want to change the bill? Why do Republican governors from other states refuse to sign similar bills? If leftism requires stupidity to survive the conservatism either requires ignorance or willful disregard of facts.

Looks like Barack and John Kerry got a deal with Iran done. Guess we can sit back and wait for the inevitable conservative freakout. Take that BiBi! Even the traitorous Republicans can't stop it. Starting to look like my man B is turning out to be a halfway decent President afterall.

Nope, conservatives have been taking over school districts and doing such insane things as inserting creationism in science class and getting rid of AP American History classes because they weren't pro America enough. The public school system has been under assault for decades by conservatives.

PilotX:Freeing slaves from the Republican plantation since the 70's said...Nope, conservatives have been taking over school districts and doing such insane things as inserting creationism in science class--

Where in our public institutions is creationism taught as legitimate science?

"Real talk: Daniel Rubin has a great little piece up wherein he chats with The Field Negro, the Philly-based blogger who sharply ponders all things black on a daily basis. (Seriously, if you’ve never checked in with TFN, you should: Its author, Wayne Bennett, is a fantastic read who can cut through bullshit like a hot knife through butter, which is a far grosser analogy than I wanted to make, but there you have it.)" ~Philebrity~

"One of the most precocious and hilarious Black political minds on the net. Ive been a long-time fan!" ~Asad Malik~

"..While most of what he writes is tongue-in-cheek, his space is a safe house for candid discussions about race, especially in the comments section, where people of all colors meet."~~Daniel Rubin, "The Philadelphia Inquirer"~~

"To white people, Bennett's musings are like kitchen-table talk from a kitchen they may otherwise never set foot in. To African Americans, he is part of a growing army of black Internet amateurs who have taken up the work once reserved for ministers and professional activists: the work of setting a black agenda, shaping black opinion and calling attention to the state of the nation's racial affairs."

~~Richard Fausset, "L.A. Times"~~~

"That's why I love the blog "Field Negro" so much. Field, as he's known to his fans, has the sense of reality that it takes to call out the (CowPuckey) of blame beating by those who are in positions of power and their lackeys. Because of his handle and his unabashed way of writing about racial issues, Field is often cited as a "Black blogger." What he is, however, is a first-class detector of blame deflection and an excellent student of history. If you want to write about the past and future of repression there's really no other perspective to take - which is why everyone should read Field."

"Half a century after Little Rock, the Montgomery bus boycott and the tumultuous dawn of the modern civil rights era, the new face of the movement is Facebook, MySpace and some 150 black blogs united in an Internet alliance they call theAfroSpear.

Older, familiar leaders such as Rev. Jesse Jackson, Rev. Al Sharpton and NAACP Chairman Julian Bond, are under challenge by a younger generation of bloggers known by such provocative screen names as Field Negro, thefreeslaveand African American Political Pundit. And many of the newest struggles are being waged online."~Howard Witt-The Chicago Tribune~

"I had no idea, for example, of the extent of the African-American blogging world out there and its collective powers of dissemination.But now, after reading thousands of anguished, thoughtful comments posted on these blogs reflecting on issues of persistent racial discrimination in the nation's schools and courtrooms, what's clear to me is that there's a new, "virtual" civil rights movement out there on the Internet that can reach more people in a few hours than all the protest marches, sit-ins and boycotts of the 1950s and 60s put together." ~Chicago Tribune Reporter, Howard Witt~
